I have 3 out of the 4 sets of fillets complete. It seems like I've been using a lot less Rocketpoxy (by weight) than I have in the past.
This morning I decided to weigh all of the components and update my OpenRocket file. Everything seemed REALLY light. Too light. So I weighed a stack of quarters and they weigh about 1/5 of what they should. Crap! I guess my gram scale is toast. The funny thing is it was consistently off, so I could use it to measure out epoxy to a 50/50 ratio. I just can't use it to actually weigh anything.
I ordered a new 600g .1g accuracy scale from Amazon for $9 shipped. It's more the annoyance than the cost.
